_Ya'at'eeh_ Love to you from Fort Wingate NM, a small community called Iyanbito. I can see I-40 from my front porch. The word means Buffalo's Water. My family use to get fresh spring water called "Sweet Water." I remember at age nine getting some with my uncle and the well was deep I remember drinking the fresh water. Now the well is closed because people would vandalize it. Many Nation Leaders want to preserve the Coconino Aquifer beneath our home. Many Uranium Pumps are near by so many people are wanting a demand. The Colorado River is indeed important to many States and the other Rivers. My people have many stories of Buffalo herds drinking the spring pond before colonial times. I never knew Buffalo were here and all of Northern Arizona. _Ahéhee_ Thank you for visiting my peoples land. I want to visit Canyon de Chelly National Monument:) or Antelope Canyon, Arizona
Thank you so much for your note! 🙏 *I’ve never been to Canyon de Chelly National Monument, but I visited Antelope Canyon a few years ago, and it’s absolutely amazing!!! Nature in this entire area is so incredibly unique and beautiful, and to me Antelope Canyon is truly a wonder.
Thank you for giving such a deep meaning and reflection on the journey of the Navajo nation. And yes, loosing parents is tragic and very difficult! Thank you for giving such a profound reflection on the pain of losing loved ones.
I'm happy you got to see and walk near the peak of Shiprock rock. Your right by my grandpa land you may have seen some houses in front of it that's where my mom father is from. We had so much great memories we made there with families. Story behind it, The Navajo name for the peak, Tsé Bitʼaʼí, "rock with wings" or "winged rock", refers to the legend of the great bird that brought the Navajo from the north to their present lands. The peak was once the nesting place of a giant bird of prey. The last of 16 monsters that the Hero Twin gods had to slay before human beings could come to live in the present world. They say they don't allow anyone to climb the rocks for scared reasons. When we go there we have to say a prayer and blessing to before we go near it. It's just the way my grandparents taught us. Happy you got the chance to visit Shiprock, Like you explain life is to short we got to learn to live life and be blessed for each day. I to lost my parents & son at different times. It's hard I need to do what your doing when the time is right. You know there is never a right time I just need to do it like you. I deal with sadness here and there but continue to keep moving forward for my parents and my son. I'm happy for you gonna watch the rest of your videos. Your video came up on my feed and I watch and enjoyed your talk. Safe travels where every you go out site seeing.

No living soul in sight? You would have to be dead to not know that that is a living vibrant place with living souls everywhere. Embarrassing.
